Three plays for Aspen
Lock min-7 across the ski-season high-yielding weeks.
Aspen premium ski demand is weekly. A 3-night booking at full ADR caps the week at ~40% take. Min-7 is the regional standard for the highest-yielding inventory.
Open Food & Wine + Ideas Festival weeks 9 months out.
Premium-tier event demand books 9–12 months ahead for downtown inventory. Late-opening hosts miss the early-bird segment.
Hold high during mud season — do not discount April-May.
Aspen's mud season (April-May) is genuinely empty. Discounting to fill it costs more in brand than it adds in revenue. Hold rates, take the empty calendar, capture summer at full price.
Why a generic AI can't do this for Aspen
Your live booking pace, the rates your three closest comps will charge next Friday, how fast the nights around yours are filling 30/60/90 days out — none of it is on the public web. We connect to all three and cite the signal behind every recommendation. Read the full argument at our manifesto and the side-by-side at the comparison page.
FAQ · pricing in Aspen
Does restay work for premium-tier Aspen pricing?
Yes — the comp index includes the premium-tier inventory in your bed/bath/guest band. Proposed values are bounded at $2,000/night today; if your luxury listing needs more headroom, email hello@restay.ai and we'll lift it for your account.
How does the agent handle Aspen's mud season?
It reads comp moves + your pacing. If comps hold rates flat in May and your pacing matches, the agent doesn't push a discount move. If comps drop and your pacing slips, the agent recommends a move — but you decide whether to take it.
My listing is on Red Mountain. Will the comp set drift to downtown?
Red Mountain comps pull Red Mountain comps within lat/lng radius. You can also pin specific listings to anchor the match.
How does this compare to Wheelhouse for Aspen?
Wheelhouse is a market-positioning + dynamic pricing tool. restay overlaps on pricing recommendations but extends to PMS write-back and listing-level moves (copy, amenities, min-nights). Event windows like Food & Wine and X Games reach the recommendations through comp moves on those dates.
I rent through a luxury PM. Can I still use this?
restay connects through your PMS, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial. Even if a PM controls your pricing, the audit shows you what the market is doing. Useful as a check on PM decisions.
